What is Distributed Testing
A process preferably persistent and continuous for linking
various geographically separated Live Virtual and
Constructive sites and capabilities together in a distributed
environment for use across the acquisition life cycle to
support and conduct the Test and Evaluation (TampE) of a
system or systems-of-systems
GOAL Near Real-Time Test-Fix-Test

What is Distributed Testing
A process preferably persistent and continuous for linking
various geographically separated Live Virtual and
Constructive sites and capabilities together in a distributed
environment for use across the acquisition life cycle to
support and conduct the Test and Evaluation (TampE) of a
system or systems-of-systems
A new way of thinking for many in the
Test and Evaluation enterprise
5
Distributed Testing Impacts
bull Distributed Testing has already demonstrated
bull Time savings risk reduction cost savings
bull Efficiencies across the development and TampE process
bull Early identification of issues
bull Move datamdashnot people
bull Near real-time Test-Fix-Test
bull Distributed Testing when fully implemented also
bull Provides for agile persistent TampE
bull Supports early integration of DT and OT
bull Gives SMErsquos an ―Intensive Lab and connective relationship with
other entities in the systems-of-systems environment that they
wouldnrsquot have otherwise
6
Why Consider Distributed Test
bull Do you have data exchange requirements within your
system or within a system-of-systems (SoS)
bull Do you have a requirement to address SoS interoperability
issues early in the acquisition process
bull Do you have adequate numbers of systems under test for
live testing
bull Do you have adequate numbers of ―supporting cast
(supporting systems C4ISR assets etc) for live testing
bull Do you have adequate threat types fidelity and density in
realistic numbers at realistic ranges for live testing 7
When Is Distributed Test Appropriate
bull Examples Where Appropriate
ndash Interoperability testing
bull C4 Interoperability with higher lower and adjacent Joint force organizations
ndash Data exchange in early DT testing
bull Interaction between sub-systems (latency may be a consideration)
bull Interaction between systems in a realistic environment
o Provide the most realistic environment possible from concept exploration through
Follow-On TampE
ndash When it is too costly to bring all the player systems together on a single
range
ndash Gain or increase operational relevance
bull Virtual and Constructive capabilities to supplement live systems (eg red
forces white forces terrain immobile test assets)
bull Examples Where Inappropriate
ndash System performance tests that do not include other systemssubsystems
ndash Reliability testing
8
Reduces Cost Risk and Time
Distributed Testing Challenges
9
Not unique to JMETC but we are working
bull Classification
ndash Multi-level security issue to peer to networks of higher classification levels
ndash Solution
bull Short Term Create separate enclaves for each level
ndash Time and dollars issue to operate at higher levels of classification
bull Long Term Develop an enterprise solution
ndash Current CTEIP Project
bull DOD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process
ndash Information Assurance Requirements for higher levels of classification
bull Time and dollars issue
ndash DIACAP Tiger Team
bull Common lexicon and reciprocal acceptance
bull RDTampE Community won a mechanism for their voice to be heard by the policy
makers
bull TRMC is now a non-voting member of the DIACAP Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
where next-generation policy is being developed

What is Distributed Testing
A process preferably persistent and continuous for linking
various geographically separated Live Virtual and
Constructive sites and capabilities together in a distributed
environment for use across the acquisition life cycle to
support and conduct the Test and Evaluation (TampE) of a
system or systems-of-systems
GOAL Near Real-Time Test-Fix-Test

A process preferably persistent and continuous for linking
various geographically separated Live Virtual and
Constructive sites and capabilities together in a distributed
environment for use across the acquisition life cycle to
support and conduct the Test and Evaluation (TampE) of a
system or systems-of-systems
A new way of thinking for many in the
Test and Evaluation enterprise
5
Distributed Testing Impacts
bull Distributed Testing has already demonstrated
bull Time savings risk reduction cost savings
bull Efficiencies across the development and TampE process
bull Early identification of issues
bull Move datamdashnot people
bull Near real-time Test-Fix-Test
bull Distributed Testing when fully implemented also
bull Provides for agile persistent TampE
bull Supports early integration of DT and OT
bull Gives SMErsquos an ―Intensive Lab and connective relationship with
other entities in the systems-of-systems environment that they
wouldnrsquot have otherwise
6
Why Consider Distributed Test
bull Do you have data exchange requirements within your
system or within a system-of-systems (SoS)
bull Do you have a requirement to address SoS interoperability
issues early in the acquisition process
bull Do you have adequate numbers of systems under test for
live testing
bull Do you have adequate numbers of ―supporting cast
(supporting systems C4ISR assets etc) for live testing
bull Do you have adequate threat types fidelity and density in
realistic numbers at realistic ranges for live testing 7
When Is Distributed Test Appropriate
bull Examples Where Appropriate
ndash Interoperability testing
bull C4 Interoperability with higher lower and adjacent Joint force organizations
ndash Data exchange in early DT testing
bull Interaction between sub-systems (latency may be a consideration)
bull Interaction between systems in a realistic environment
o Provide the most realistic environment possible from concept exploration through
Follow-On TampE
ndash When it is too costly to bring all the player systems together on a single
range
ndash Gain or increase operational relevance
bull Virtual and Constructive capabilities to supplement live systems (eg red
forces white forces terrain immobile test assets)
bull Examples Where Inappropriate
ndash System performance tests that do not include other systemssubsystems
ndash Reliability testing

What is Distributed Testing
A process preferably persistent and continuous for linking
various geographically separated Live Virtual and
Constructive sites and capabilities together in a distributed
environment for use across the acquisition life cycle to
support and conduct the Test and Evaluation (TampE) of a
system or systems-of-systems
A new way of thinking for many in the
Test and Evaluation enterprise
5
Distributed Testing Impacts
bull Distributed Testing has already demonstrated
bull Time savings risk reduction cost savings
bull Efficiencies across the development and TampE process
bull Early identification of issues
bull Move datamdashnot people
bull Near real-time Test-Fix-Test
bull Distributed Testing when fully implemented also
bull Provides for agile persistent TampE
bull Supports early integration of DT and OT
bull Gives SMErsquos an ―Intensive Lab and connective relationship with
other entities in the systems-of-systems environment that they
wouldnrsquot have otherwise
6
Why Consider Distributed Test
bull Do you have data exchange requirements within your
system or within a system-of-systems (SoS)
bull Do you have a requirement to address SoS interoperability
issues early in the acquisition process
bull Do you have adequate numbers of systems under test for
live testing
bull Do you have adequate numbers of ―supporting cast
(supporting systems C4ISR assets etc) for live testing
bull Do you have adequate threat types fidelity and density in
realistic numbers at realistic ranges for live testing 7
When Is Distributed Test Appropriate
bull Examples Where Appropriate
ndash Interoperability testing
bull C4 Interoperability with higher lower and adjacent Joint force organizations
ndash Data exchange in early DT testing
bull Interaction between sub-systems (latency may be a consideration)
bull Interaction between systems in a realistic environment
o Provide the most realistic environment possible from concept exploration through
Follow-On TampE
ndash When it is too costly to bring all the player systems together on a single
range
ndash Gain or increase operational relevance
bull Virtual and Constructive capabilities to supplement live systems (eg red
forces white forces terrain immobile test assets)
bull Examples Where Inappropriate
ndash System performance tests that do not include other systemssubsystems
ndash Reliability testing
8
Reduces Cost Risk and Time
Distributed Testing Challenges
9
Not unique to JMETC but we are working
bull Classification
ndash Multi-level security issue to peer to networks of higher classification levels
ndash Solution
bull Short Term Create separate enclaves for each level
ndash Time and dollars issue to operate at higher levels of classification
bull Long Term Develop an enterprise solution
ndash Current CTEIP Project
bull DOD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process
ndash Information Assurance Requirements for higher levels of classification
bull Time and dollars issue
ndash DIACAP Tiger Team
bull Common lexicon and reciprocal acceptance
bull RDTampE Community won a mechanism for their voice to be heard by the policy
makers
bull TRMC is now a non-voting member of the DIACAP Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
where next-generation policy is being developed
The JMETC Mission
JMETC provides the persistent and robust
infrastructure (network integration
software tools reuse repository) and
technical expertise to integrate live virtual

Distributed Testing Impacts
bull Distributed Testing has already demonstrated
bull Time savings risk reduction cost savings
bull Efficiencies across the development and TampE process
bull Early identification of issues
bull Move datamdashnot people
bull Near real-time Test-Fix-Test
bull Distributed Testing when fully implemented also
bull Provides for agile persistent TampE
bull Supports early integration of DT and OT
bull Gives SMErsquos an ―Intensive Lab and connective relationship with
other entities in the systems-of-systems environment that they
wouldnrsquot have otherwise
6
Why Consider Distributed Test
bull Do you have data exchange requirements within your
system or within a system-of-systems (SoS)
bull Do you have a requirement to address SoS interoperability
issues early in the acquisition process
bull Do you have adequate numbers of systems under test for
live testing
bull Do you have adequate numbers of ―supporting cast
(supporting systems C4ISR assets etc) for live testing
bull Do you have adequate threat types fidelity and density in
realistic numbers at realistic ranges for live testing 7
When Is Distributed Test Appropriate
bull Examples Where Appropriate
ndash Interoperability testing
bull C4 Interoperability with higher lower and adjacent Joint force organizations
ndash Data exchange in early DT testing
bull Interaction between sub-systems (latency may be a consideration)
bull Interaction between systems in a realistic environment
o Provide the most realistic environment possible from concept exploration through
Follow-On TampE
ndash When it is too costly to bring all the player systems together on a single
range
ndash Gain or increase operational relevance
bull Virtual and Constructive capabilities to supplement live systems (eg red
forces white forces terrain immobile test assets)
bull Examples Where Inappropriate
ndash System performance tests that do not include other systemssubsystems
ndash Reliability testing
8
Reduces Cost Risk and Time
Distributed Testing Challenges
9
Not unique to JMETC but we are working
bull Classification
ndash Multi-level security issue to peer to networks of higher classification levels
ndash Solution
bull Short Term Create separate enclaves for each level
ndash Time and dollars issue to operate at higher levels of classification
bull Long Term Develop an enterprise solution
ndash Current CTEIP Project
bull DOD Information Assurance Certification and Accreditation Process
ndash Information Assurance Requirements for higher levels of classification
bull Time and dollars issue
ndash DIACAP Tiger Team
bull Common lexicon and reciprocal acceptance
bull RDTampE Community won a mechanism for their voice to be heard by the policy
makers
bull TRMC is now a non-voting member of the DIACAP Technical Advisory Group (TAG)
where next-generation policy is being developed
